Some kids actually believe they can make a difference in the world.

...and if enough of us support them they will! I have a passion for supporting kids causes. This is great.

I've gone to multiple charity car washes for church or other youth programs on a single day. I'm a sponsor for an online convention geared toward...well this isn't about me. It's about a group of kids in Canada. The class of the sister of an MLM friend of mine developed a project so ambitious that it was selected by UNICEF Canada to be linked to in their list of causes eligble for contributions. Here is the story, or visit the website here.

....This year Avery Dakin-Clarke started Pennies Against Poverty. Pennies Against Poverty is a fundraiser linking with UNICEF using pennies to build a classroom in Malawi, Africa.

It all started when Avery’s class was reading Free The Children by Craig Keilburger. After reading a few chapters from it the class started a discussion about how girls in Africa hardly get to go to school. Avery realized how lucky she was to get be able to go to school and get an education. She want the girls in Malawi to have the same opportunity she has to got to school.

"The pennies part started when I was in the car with my dad and he was complaining about how he had so many “useless pennies” in his change box in the car. I said pennies really add up, and I was right. I figured if other people felt that way I could really do something great with them if I collected them long enough. And that’s when I started Pennies Against Poverty.

Help Avery build a classroom in Malawi by donating now to Pennies Against Poverty.

I told my friend Wendy...

For someone who has a passion for supporting kids this is like a dream come true. Not only do I get to do something for a child in an impoverished situation, I also show these kids in your sister's class that their efforts can and will make a difference. They dared to dream for others and in return they'll be rewarded with the pride and self-confidence that will make them better people over the years.

I can't get help but feel I'm the luckiest one of the whole group!
